Zenith Theatre, Constantine (Algeria)

With a project which is striking for both its modern, avant garde design and its relevance, we discover an unusual application of Nokenbathroom fittings and taps. This is the Zenith Theatre in Constantine, located in the outskirts of this Mediterranean Algerian city, very close to its international airport.

The PTW Architects studio, in collaboration with CCDI, has been in charge of undertaking this project which combines the most advanced technical equipment with design principles based on the history and culture of Algeria. With this, the Zenith Theatre, Constantine hopes to become a cultural reference point for the African continent.

In order to adapt to the irregularities of the land, the construction is set out over three levels which allow most of the slopes created by the existing hills to be offset. With a flexible design able to adapt to different functions, the Zenith Theatre contains a large music hall with a capacity for 3,000 spectators, as well as two smaller auditoriums for 150 and 300 people.
